Chrysler vehicles can be hacked
Extreme Tech ET is not always the most reliable of sources. I know that I have called them out on items which were away from their zone of expertize. But this is about computers which they do know ...

Anyone ever pay attention SiFi movie plots ?
Last time checked...over 85% of their IP came to be...Terminator anyone?
The summer interns hired while I was at SunLabs wanted to take over Gates
home when they found out his home was going to be 'PC' based controls...
After telling *NO* and that they will be able to trace it back to Sun...an
arch rival..
Early 90's and still think some of those kids did hack into some of the
servers...before I told them *NO*...
When 'highly integrated' XYZ's came to be...many here touted that against
others who did NOT like 'highly integrated'...mainly trailer brake controllers
The steering wheel is no longer directly connected to the steering box on
many and going to be most vehicles today. The steering wheel is connected
directly to a potentiometer or some such position sensor (think El Cheapo)
Another 'fly by wire'. Can't wait, or has it been done already...for the OEMs
to 'highly integrate' steering into their anti-sway and traction control system
Anti-Sway & traction control are 'highly integrated' with the ABS system.
Along with the future booster...where your brake pedal is no longer going to
be connected directly to the MC piston rod
Another 'fly by wire'...
Autonomous test vehicles driving all over my area (SF Bayarea) has had
many accidents, but this had the first human injury accident. I'm not a fan
of self driving vehicles just yet. Too much to be explored and 'fixed'
Search 'Volvo automated accident' where during a self parking demo it plowed
into the news folks. Think it broke that one guy's leg who was thrown onto the hood
PS...no Internet needed...just WiFi/BlueTooth/etc to do whatever
you wish to any computerized 'thing'...and...already there with
the keyless fobs...remote start...etc, etc, etc
PPS...LEO kill switches are in testing...moving out of Alpha and
into Beta (live on street)...no more pursuit of 'new' vehicles...just
push the 'kill button'...am assuming that they have to either 'aim'
it or somehow tell 'only "that" vehicle'...
